Well it's been a pretty good weekend.
So, on friday night megan came over and we watched cars. Megan has such a cool job. She gets to watch rentals for free all the time! The movie theatre was cool, but with hollywood video you get to watch movies from every genre, from every time period. Megan seems like she enjoys it. I found out that she hasn't seen The godfather parts one and two or Gone with the wind, so I guess this means that sometime we will have to have a twelve hour movie marathon so we can watch those movies.
Then on saturday, valentines day, Geoff and I went and saw friday the 13th. It's saying something about the quality of that film that I liked My bloody valentine more. Friday the 13th was less gory(that was nice, I mean, there's only so much I can take) but other than that, it was completely predictable. Except for the part where Jason killed the black guy out in the woods, and then was somehow inexplicably on the roof 2 seconds later. I am not exagerating. The black guy is running through the forest, then he gets axed(literally, haha, pun) and then jason is on the roof of the house that is 20 yards away. The nice thing about this movie is that there were a few moments of humor. Before all the death started.
Geoff and I had a lot of fun comentating, of course. First of all, have you ever noticed that classic slasher flicks always have the following:
1. Creepy, all knowing old person(who may or may not die, it just depends.) Which begs the question, if you KNOW that a pysco has been prowling around for 20 years, why haven't you left yet? It might be time to move to a different lake.
2. Sex, followed by death. And it usually goes like this:
"Oh yes! Oh yes! Wait...I think I heard something...."
"Oh who cares."
"No, go out in the dark and check! No more sex, I'm scared but I have no qualms about you going out into the mysterious woods to check the danger."
"Alright....(walks off) Hello???? "generic friend name" is that you!? *Death*
Later, with girl still in bed, having inexplicably heard nothing.
"Hey, what are you doing in the sheet? And why are you three inches taller? And wider? And why do you have a machete? Stop kidding around! Whatever, no more sex, i'm going to turn around now and do something else, screw you!" *Death*
3. The random hillbilly that has lived and worked in the area for years but who the killer is JUST now getting around to murdering. Seriously Jason, this guys been working at the woodchop for 12 years, but today is the day? It's like Jason was sitting there going, "I've really been putting this off, i've gotta take care of that damn hillbilly."
Then we went to Geoff's house and saw Repo!the genetic opera, which was ok. I liked a few of the songs, and the premis was pretty original, but I think they could have done better. It could have been much cooler. Still, I like Anthony stewart head, and he's a decent singer.
Then on sunday after work Ian, Waffles, and I went to quiznos and other various places to hang out. I'm worried about things, Why did this have to happen now?but all I can do is hope right now. We've got a lot of years to live through. And maybe things will be hard for a while, but I know that with hard work things will work out eventually. That goes for Waffles and Ian, but for everyone else too. We've just got to keep on trudging. We'll all make it somehow, we've just got to live from day to day, and do the best we can.
I'm working in the deli on wednsday. I'm so glad, I miss everybody! Especially Eli and Kevin, but I want to work with Ana and Sal again too. And talk to Jesse and Andrew from meat and produce. I want to go back where I belong!
Love,
Tara
